OUR DAILY BREAD.

Heavy and sour bread or biscuit has
vast influence through the digestive organs
upon the measure of health we enjoy.
How important to our present happiness
and future usefulness the blessing of good
health and sound constitution are, we
can only realize when we have lost them,
and when it is too late to repair the dam
age. Notwithstanding these facts. thous-
ands of persons daily jeopardize not only
their health, but their lives, and the
healths and lives of others, by using ar
ticles in the preparation of their food the
purity and healthfulness of which they
know nothing. Perhaps few cents may
have been saved, or it may have been
more convenient to obtain the articles
used, and the housekeeper takes the re-
sponsibility and possibly will never know
the mischief that bas been wrought. Pa
terfamilias may have spells of headache,
the children may have lost their appetites,
or look pale: if so, the true cause is rarely
suspected. The weather, the lack of out
door air, or some her cause, is given, and
the unwholesome, poisonous system of
adulterated food goes on. Next to the
-four, which should be made of good,
sound wheat and not ground too fine the
yeast or baking powder; which furnishes
tie rising properties, is of the greatest
importance, and of the two we prefer bak-
ing powder, and always use the Royal, as
we thereby retain the original properties
of the wheat, no fermentation taking
place. The action of the Royal Baking
Powder upon the dough is simply to swell
1t and form little cells through every part.
These cells are filled with carbonic acid
gas, which passes off during the process
of baking.
The Royal is made from pure grape
acid, and it is the action of this acid upon
highly carbonized bi-carbonate of soda
that generates the gas alluded to: and
these ingredients are so pure and so per-
tectly fitted, tested and adapted to each
other, that the action is mild and perma-
nent, and is continued during the whole
time of baking, and no residue of poison
Gus ingredients remains TO undermine the
health, no heavy biscuits, no sour bread,
but if directions are followed, every article
will be found sweet and wholesome.

In France the bounty amounts to
from $35 to $40 on the ton, and on her
crop, SOC, 900 tons, is equal to 10000
600. At one time the Russian draw
back was $S1 per ton, but the drain
was SO heavy on the national treasury
that it was reduced greatly.
The United States is great consul
mer of sugar as she is Of nearly every
other commodity. We import 767 ,250
tons from Cuba, use the 105, 5,000
tons grown in Louisiana, take
all the Hawaiian crop and a
third of the Brazilian product.
Full two million of tons would not
measure our consumption of sweets.
That would be only sixty-six
pounds per capita year for our popu-
lation. When California can produce
the bulk of this amount it will come
to $3.50, 100000.
The beauty of the German plan OF
giving bounty is that it stimulates the
improvement of the machinery used
in the manufacture of the sugar, and
also of the chemical processes which
aid in the work.

mand for the number of the st. Louis
Republican which contains the eleven
column report of the secret debate in
Grand Army circles in st. Louis. In
all probability there were some
sprightly passages amongst the breth-
rem, and it will possibly be found that
they turned largely on the peculiar
antics of the Messrs. Fairchild, Tuttle
and Foraker in introducing into the
affairs of what is supposed to be a
non-partizan association so much OF
their Republican views. 1t is we'll
known that their course was disap-
proved of by Gen. Sherman, and it is
quite likely that many others shared
the indignation OF the gallant Te-
cumseh.

Rect Sugar.

A great movement is impending in
California in the industry of making
sugar from beet roots. Los Angeles
in common with other parts OF South
California is admirably adapted to
this enterprise, fact set forth in our
columns some few days ago. In view
of what is coming in this line con-
else statement of the worlds sugar
supply would not be without some
interest. This is obtained from the
August number of the U. s. Consular
reports, as given by Mr.. Wood our
consul at Dundee, Scotland. From
this source we learn that the sugar
crops of the world for 1867, amounted
to 4,9S3, 900 tons, which was 56S, ,349
tons more than the crop of the previ-
Gus season. This excess doubtless
explains the low price of sugar for a
year past. Perhaps the most aston
ishing item in the report is that the
amount of sugar manufactured from
beets exceeds that from cane by IT,
600 tons-the figures are: Output
from beet root factories 2,5sO, 900 tons,
and from cane plantations 2 2,403 900
tons. The cane sugar comes mostly
from Cuba, Java, Brazil and Manila.
Cuba produced IT'S 900 tons, of which
the United States bought 80 per cent.
This was about one-third OF
the consumption of the Union.
The domestic crop of this country
was 105, 900 tons from Louisiana.
This is not a good showing for the
sugar cane industry in the United
States. At cents per pound, the
crop would amount to $15, 100000
and that is protected by the present
tariff schedule by gross import tax
of $50,OOO,000. In view of the pro-
posed beet root industry in California,
it is not desirable that the tariff
should be at all disturbed in this re-
spect. Nor is it likely to be. In
casting about for method of reducing
the surplus constantly accumulating
in the Treasury, Senator Sherman
proposes the remission of the tariff on
sugar, which would lop off $50, 900, 900.
The Ohio statesman of course would
rather strike at an industry in DEM
ocratic State than one where his party
draws a good deal of support. Yet,
even under these circumstances, with
the adage, "Always treat an enemy as
if he might some day be your friend,"
in mind Mr.. Sherman proposes to
subsidize the Louisiana sugar grow
ers by an amount equal to the tariff
he proposes to rescind.
But it is in the beet sugar supply We
are more directly interested. The
following table shows the product of
the several countries engaged in this
industry, the figures being in tons:

THE October number of the "Ameri-
can Magazine" contains very in
tere sting paper from the pen Of q. L..
White, devoted tn "Pittsburgh's Invis-
ible Fuel" This is topic of special
interest to South California. All over
this section there are unmistakab able
indications that natural gas can be
had in any quantity desired if the
proper energy and outlay were at
hand. The City of Pittsburgh has
been revolutionized by the utilization
to domestic and manufacturing pur-
poses of this valuable product Of the
alchemy of nature. In the old days
the "Smoky City," through the enor-
nous consumption of bituminous coal
in the furnaces, sInelters, rolling mills
and coke ovens which adjoin it, was
known as the dirtiest spot on the
American continent. Parton, in one
of his essays, characterized it as "hell
with the lid off," and such sinile
was not strained in the opinion of any
one that stood on any of its numer-
GUS hills and looked down on the
banks of the Monongahela or Allie
gheny rivers, both crowded as they
were with tens of thousands of brawny
men string up carbon in various
stages of ignition. Now everything is
changed as by magic. The develop
ment of natural gas, an incident OF
the past four or five years, has made
the city both clean and rich. The
several companies engaged in supply
ing Pittsburgh with gas have capi-
tai of over $15,0OO,0O0. Over thirty
thousand families use the new fuel in
heating nting their dwelling &
and in all culinary operations, and
they could not be persuaded to return
to the old methods. The gas is ad-
mirably adapted to the manufacture
of iron and steel, while in the glass
factories it gives such great satisfac-
tion that the leading manufacturers
say they would not resume the use OF
coal if they could get it for nothing.
With natural gas bursting out of the
earth within half a mile of the Los
Angeles Court House, taken in con-
nection with the abundant oil meas
ures found over extensive sections of
this county, it is somewhat surprising
that no energetic effort has ever been
made to developit here. Experienced
oil men from Pittsburgh, who have
looked into the situation say that it is
only question of labor and money
to develop gas measures in this section
amply sufficient for both manufacture
ing and domestic uses. In this con-
nection it is well to note another inter-
esting fact remarked by Pittsburgh
experts, and that Is that IN the neigh
borhood of Lang's Station, in the
Soledad caiion, there are mountains of
the finest glass sand in the world.
Millions of tons Of it can be delivered
ready for use at one-fifth the cost
which an inferior article stands the
Pittsburgh manufacturer in. These
two easily developed resources point
to Los Angeles as a very attractive
place for the location of glass manu-
factories of all grades. We under
stand that a movement is on foot to
start one OF fthese. factories here, and it
is to be hoped that it will be carried out
on large scale.
